Britain makes the best dance music. Adam Beyer is
cool I have to admit. Or are you talking about ABBA ?
Are you a dancing queen? Acid techno dude...check out
the Liberators.

Yeah, like back in 88, if you used a 303 the music was acid not techno. Most of the real techno back then from Juan Atkins, Blake Baxter, Derrick May, etc, etc, used gear like Poly 800s, DX100s and anything else they could get their hands on because that's all they could afford. FM synths were a major part of the techno sound. How many people use FM as well as those guys did nowdays?

Europeans killed Techno, simply by using that name for stuff that wasn't even music. Yeah sure I can think of a few people who are and were doing decent stuff, but on the whole it's all shit music only put together for a bunch of fucking mindless morons tripping out on an e or some other shit. Most of those records only last a week or something. Detroit techno in my opinion is timeless, because there's emotion there and the people making the music aren't just in it to make a quick buck, OR pound?

I agree this music they call techno all over europe should be called something else. How about calling it Trashcan music? That's where a lot of it ends up anyway..........

I agree with serve 2 absolutley, europeans (no offence guys), but you did give "uplifting tancient beats.aka techno style music) a shite name, especially with the like of 2 unlimited, they took the word "techno" and heavily abused it like a muv fuckker, I`m like many others, i used to think techno was a fresh new kind of music, but now when i listen to it (or what appears to be) its just hollow electronic music made by a couple of unexperienced 14 year olds with an mc303, and europians seem to love it, here`s an example......Scooter, i think this guy is german..WHAT THE FUCK IS HE ON.....i heard one of his tracks a while ago "Moooove your arrrrrssssseeee", i burst out laughing, what a pile of shit, but euro`s love it!!!!, i duuno, Even jungle music (maybee i`m treading on thin ice here), but, jungle music, what is it? ,yet again, an akai sampler and some big black MC talking along gibbering total SHIT! you have to be on some form of drugs to appreciate it, BOOOOM tikikikikikikikik BOOOM tiikikikikiki, admittedley some jungle music thats put together well with vocals add feeling to the music and is generally pretty good, but otherwise...Erm..Nope!

Keep creating fresh music peoples you know us in the UK have the best dance music scene in the world, euro`s, keep yer music (im going before some jungle enthusiast beats me up) hehe

Alright here's my opinion on jungle....They should run the beats at half the tempo, I just can't handle this clickety clack snare drum crap all over the place, and every track you hear on the cover cds of The Mix or Future Music has that shit. To my ears it's very very gimmacky. Actually the truth is, I can't handle listening to anything that's faster than I can walk. It upsets your natural rhythm and balance.

As for that noise(I won't call it music) where they have a 909 kick going at 180bmp or whatever, I mean you'd just have to be a totally drugged out mental case to be listening to anything like that. Keep it below 135bpm pleazzz.

Peace out to inUK also. I glad you agree with me.

It sounds like some people reading this dance music site
don't actually dance much themselves. If jungle's 170+ bpm's
are tough, follow the half-time bass.

I saw Juan Atkins, Derrick May, and Kevin Saunderson together
at a rave last weekend, and they were all giving shouts out
and hollering about e. And, um, the name "acid" doesn't
come from corrosive substances.

...uh..drugs are good...no....wait....ow!!!...my brain hurts
from thinking.

Ha ha, I've heard Juan's a bit of a serious pot head. Apparantly his motto is "the better the bud the better the track". 'Never touched the stuff myself so I wouldn't know..

yeah I agree with that.......It's called DANCE music, cos you dance to it !!!!...... If you cant dance, you cant dreate the music....end of story......Jungle is great, cos you can go for some serious turf-surfin' or headbanging to the fast layer......then if you like, you can driop down & swing it at half-time to the bassline,.....and there's lot's inbetween !!.....
I rate it for dancing....drives you loopy to listen too after a while tho........

Soft drumn'bass with sweat sweaping pads is extremly nice to listen to.
Stone hard jungle can get a bit annoying.

I apologize, Kilo, that this is probably going to repeat several times over once again. I blame my parents' crap aol account.

Getting back to the original topic, Sweden and the rest of Scandinavia have a very nice scene going on, actually, something like a cross between the hard intensity of Germany and the melodic dance-ability (and, well, commerciality) of the UK. If you think about it, the UK scene owes a great deal to both German techno and American house, so fools that wanna go around slagging either of these places obviously don't know their roots. Of all the countries I've been to, though, Thailand has the freshest scene around, 'cause it's still so underground (but unfortunately dangerous for us dj's).

'N about jungle, I saw Johnny L spinning in Venice (Los Angeles, not Italy) the other night. Shouts out to the London scene, you're still way ahead of us in many respects. I hope you can embrace our West Coast Breaks with the same open minds.

Peace and positivity to our scene. Music is multi-faceted, and sometimes the most beautiful things are what we don't understand. (jesus, I feel like a million soft, cuddly e-toys be poppin' outta my fuckin' euphoria-trippin' cranium. Time ta smoke a blunt {-)~

YOu stupid f*ck! Swedish techno is not schootershit. scooter makes eurorave or w.t.f. its called. Swedish techno.. ..its distorted, cp-rythms, HARD and groovy. most of the swedish techno (the 12"s which you can find under the label "techno" in swedish musicstores (like
planet rythm)) uses 12-bits samplers (i guess), compressors, 909 rides, snare, claps, hats hand bassdrum. Shit like scooter is not availble in recordstores that sells music on 12".

If you in america finds something like drumcode(s) or anything that has to do with Adam Beyer you will know what i mean!

Kilo, can i send you a real audiofile with some swedish techno? wait, some of my friends (Dj Hardcell, swedish techno dj) put up a site with techno.. ..i think so anyways.

Gotta go
